Period problems / how to balance hormones?
Female 31. So as I am in this lovely process of trying to optimize my thyroid, I have missed yet another period. (No there’s no way I’m pregnant because I’m celibate). When I got my hormones checked in oct, all of my hormones were low. Testosterone, progesterone, estrogen , all low. The “doctor” I saw

My cycle is still a mess
Hi everyone, just looking some reassurance I suppose. My first failed cycle ended mid October. Day 11 post transfer I started spotting and discharging some brown blood and that continued every day for about 3 weeks. I didn't get a proper period at all. It caused me a lot of stress as it felt like it

Estrogen meds
Hello guys and Happy Thanksgiving to all that celebrate today :)! I've been having OCD episodes since I was 21. Although I was misdiagnosed for quite some time, I'm happy the medications that my psychiatrist prescribed me worked all this time. I have something interesting to share with you. I've been

Endo pain with mirena 12 months on
Hi, I was diagnosed with stage 2 endometriosis November 2020 with a laproscopy. The endometrial tissue was removed, and I was placed on the Mirena coil to reduce my estrogen production. The first 6 months of the mirena coil was not nice, the pain was so bad we worried it was leftover endometrial tissue

HRT patches and lymphoedema
I've recently been prescribed with oestrogen only HRT in the form of a patch. According to my FB HRT group the best place to apply the patch is below the waist on the buttocks/hip/abdomen/thigh. However, I have some mild swelling due to lymphoedema in these areas on one side and I know from scans that

Fluid/Fibroid in uterus
Hi All, I wrote not so long ago about the clinic finding fluid in my uterus after my first cycle of ivf. Due to this I wasn't allowed a fresh transfer (understandable) and it was a freeze all cycle with 2 embies. I have gone back for further scans. On 10 Nov I had a 3D scan which showed the fluid was

High uterine artery pressures
Hi Ladies, Wondering if you have gone through something similar. I am getting ready for an embryo transfer. As part of monitoring the lining, they checked my uterine artery pressures. It was higher than 3 on both sides. I was told this increased risk of preclampsia if I was to get pregnant. Their concern

Thoughts around meds
Hi everyone, hope you’re all doing well. I started my third cycle last Thursday taking meriofert in am and Bemfola in pm. I was doing oestrogen priming for about two weeks prior to that as I have low AMH and stage 4 endometriosis on the ovaries. Due to timing on the Thursday with scan and bloods I only

Stick with mirena or have it removed?
Hi I have a gynae appointment coming up and I’m not sure whether to ask for the mirena to be removed or give it more time… I’ve had it for nearly 9 months now and it’s changed my pain pattern rather than being around periods I am experiencing pain throughout the month, about 20 days a month of pain

Hi all, grateful for any pointers pls I’m on day one of HRT - oestrogen patches and will take progesterone half way through my cycle. Is it ok do you think to start patches on day 22 of my cycle? The pharmacist said it was fine to start with patches and leave the progesterone til my first full cycle

Any downside for Apigenin?
Any downside for Apigenin? studies looked promising for Parkinson's. Dr Huberman likes it for his sleep stack (with L-theonine & mag). It's discussed a lot on the urology forum, with varying effects on testosterone and estrogen, depending on what I read....Thanks!

I had a period on this.The clinic has scanned me yesterday (thin lining, quiet ovaries) and asked to start taking oestrogen while continuing buserillin for the next 8 days. Is this what

Functional medicine advice is going in circles
I had a brief introductory telephone consult with a functional medicine doctor today. It was very brief, 10 mins, in which I outlined my symptoms and the results of thyroid and cortisol tests. The doctor said we can definitely help you, but she seemed distracted, unable to provide a date or the necessary

Transdermal estrogen and BRCA+
With BRCA2+ and on high-dose transdermal estrogen, I happened to see a reply by Richard Wassersug hidden in a thread a long time ago, about the possible danger of t2E causing accelerated prostate cancer growth for those with BRCA+ disease. I recently contacted him and he told me that he feels that this

New to FET
Hi all, I will hopefully be going for my first FET after my first round of IVF failed in September. We have 2 x grade 2 embryos frozen. I’ve been told I will need to take oestrogen tablets 3 times a day for 11-12 days then scan and hopefully then transfer 5 days later. Then start pessaries, this time
